We divide 990237 by 72
Let's see how many times 72 fits into 990237.

Advancing to step 1:
When dividing 9 by 72, we get 0 with a remainder of 9.
The next digit of our result is 0. 
Result so far: 0.0
If we subtract 0 from 9, we get 9.
Bring next digit (9) of the dividend behind the 9 and repeat the process: 99 / 72

Going ahead to step 2:
When dividing 99 by 72, we get 1 with a remainder of 27.
Write down 1 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 1.0
Subtract 72 from 99 to get 27.
Grab the next digit (0) from the dividend, add it to 27, then carry on: 270 / 72

Moving on to step 3:
72 goes into 270 3 times with a remainder of 54.
The number 3 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 13.0
Subtract 216 from 270 to get 54.
Append the next digit (2) from the dividend to 54 and continue with: 542 / 72

Let's proceed to step 4:
542 divided by 72 is 7 with a remainder of 38.
The number 7 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 137.0
Deduct 504 from 542 and we're left with 38.
Fetch the next digit (3) from the dividend, attach it to 38 and continue: 383 / 72

On to step 5:
If we divide 383 by 72, we get 5 and a remainder of 23.
Write down 5 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 1375.0
If we take 360 away from 383, we end up with 23.
Fetch the next digit (7) from the dividend, attach it to 23 and continue: 237 / 72

Let's proceed to step 6:
When dividing 237 by 72, we get 3 with a remainder of 21.
Record the quotient 3 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 13753.0
The remainder is 21 after subtracting 216 from 237.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 210, and continue the process.

Moving on to step 7:
The number 72 fits into 210 2 times, leaving a remainder of 66.
Write down 2 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 13753.2
Subtract 144 from 210 to get 66.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 660, and continue the process.

On to step 8:
72 goes into 660 9 times with a remainder of 12.
The number 9 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 13753.29
The remainder is 12 after subtracting 648 from 660.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 120, and continue the process.

Step 9:
72 goes into 120 1 times with a remainder of 48.
The next digit of our result is 1. 
Result so far: 13753.291
Subtracting 72 from 120 leaves us with 48.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 480, and continue the process.

Moving on to step 10:
When dividing 480 by 72, we get 6 with a remainder of 48.
Use 6 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 13753.2916
If we take 432 away from 480, we end up with 48.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 480, and continue the process.

On to step 11:
If we divide 480 by 72, we get 6 and a remainder of 48.
The next digit of our result is 6. 
Result so far: 13753.29166
The remainder is 48 after subtracting 432 from 480.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 480, and continue the process.

In conclusion, the division gives 13753.29166 with a balance of 4.8e-05.
